Chapter 67: A Bizarre Car Accident
After dinner, the blind man went back to the hospital to accompany Sun Yuchen, and Jiawen had to attend the class meeting in the evening, so he took a taxi to school in advance. Huang Jianjun and I walked on the street, always thinking about the safety of tomorrow, Huang Jianjun frowned, and said to me with a heavy heart: "Go home in the evening and prepare, bring the things you may need, and we will set off early tomorrow morning." β
I put my hands behind the back of my head and absentmindedly replied, "Understood, call us then!" β
I didn't have enough money on my body, I was going to take the subway back, and I was about to say goodbye to Huang Jianjun and walk into the subway station, when Huang Jianjun suddenly stopped me: "Do you have climbing tools at home?" β
I was stunned for a few seconds, waved my hand and said, "No, why is Master asking this?" β
Huang Jianjun said in a serious tone: "I may need rock climbing equipment when I go back this time, since this is the case, then I will prepare it!" β
I thought about it, "Isn't it just about getting rid of zombies?" Do you need tools like rock climbing? β
It was only afterwards that I deeply realized how ignorant I was, and I couldn't help but admire Huang Jianjun's wisdom and wisdom even more. These are all afterwords, so I won't say them here.
After returning home, I put all the talismans into a waterproof portable carry, which I hung around my waist, and could quickly take out the rune paper at any time when needed.
The things that should be collected are almost there, only the last one is missingβthe Tiangang Sword!
So far, the Tiangang Sword has accompanied me in a lot of tough battles, the original smooth sword body is covered with shocking scars, and there are even gaps of different sizes in several places, I gently stroked the Tiangang Sword with my hand, hesitating whether to take her with me.
"That's it, Tiangang Sword is not a machine, she also needs to rest!" I hung the Tiangang Sword back in its place, and I was worried about what weapon to bring?
I walked out of the bedroom to the storage room, turned on the chandelier inside, and saw a row of mahogany and copper coin swords hanging on the wall.
Although the peach wood sword has a miraculous effect on restraining ghosts, it is not hard enough to break easily, the power of the copper coin sword is comparable to that of the peach wood sword, and it is not easy to break, the disadvantage is that the length is shorter, and the attack distance is not as good as the peach wood sword.
After some struggle, I decided to bring a peach sword and a copper coin sword, and it was better to be prepared than nothing.
After cleaning up, I went to bed early, and sent a text message to Jiawen before going to bed, telling her that she was going to go out with Huang Jianjun to do something in the past few days, and Jiawen replied: "Brother, pay attention to safety, take care of your body!" β
I lay on the bed for a long time and couldn't sleep,Staring blankly at the QQ avatar of Tomorrow Nai on the phone screen,Since the last chat,Tomorrow Nai seems to have evaporated from the world and never been on QQ again,The ominous premonition in my heart is getting stronger and stronger:Tomorrow Nai must have had an accident!
β¦β¦
Early the next morning, before dawn, I left home with all my equipment, and in order not to be obtrusive, I booked an online taxi on the mobile app to go to the Eastern Passenger Station.
After getting off the train, I saw Huang Jianjun standing at the gate of the station with a huge schoolbag on his back, beckoning to me: "The ticket has been bought, and the train will depart at 8 o'clock, and the destination will be Zhaotong Yanjin." β
Huang Jianjun and I took our tickets and quickly passed through the security check to the waiting area, and it didn't take long for the announcement in the lobby to inform us to get on the bus.
We stuffed our stuff into the trunk of the bus, and as soon as we found a seat on the bus, we sat down and fell asleep.
When I woke up, it was almost 5 o'clock in the afternoon, I pulled the curtains covered by the window glass and looked out, and in a trance I thought I had come to the land of Bashu.
The car drove smoothly on a winding mountain road, with a knife-and-axe-like cliff on the left and a river valley dozens of meters deep on the right.
I looked down at the deep valley through the glass, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on my forehead, recalling the terrifying experience of almost falling from the cliff into the abyss in the Dragon's Village, and a strong sense of fear inexplicably rose in my heart.
Huang Jianjun woke up quickly, he took out his mobile phone and glanced at it, and said to himself: "It's almost there!" β
"What is the village where Master lived since childhood?" I asked Huang Jianjun with a curious expression.
He yawned and said to me listlessly, "It's not unusual, it's just a small village deep in the mountains, about dozens of families, I wonder if the population has increased there in a few decades?" I don't think so, that ghost place where birds don't poop, the environment is harsh and harsh, and only people with brain pits will go to live in that kind of place. β
I silently complained in my heart: "Is it really good for you to damage your hometown like this?" β
Just when Huang Jianjun and I were talking about each other, the bus suddenly braked suddenly, but fortunately we were wearing seat belts, otherwise we would have been thrown out.
Immediately afterwards, the bus made a sharp turn of nearly 60 degrees to the right, as if to avoid something, because the driver's operation was too hasty, the passengers on the bus had not yet reacted, and they couldn't help but scream in fright. I was dizzy and dazzled by the sudden tail swing of the dragon in the bus, and my stomach was so tumbling that I almost threw up all my breakfast and lunch.
Listening to a loud "bang", the bus completely lost control and crashed through the guardrail, one-third of the body actually rushed out of the road, trembling high hanging on the edge of the cliff dozens of meters deep, under the cliff is the surging river, from time to time in the valley blows a burst of fierce wind, blowing the body crumbling.
The passengers on the bus almost lost their minds, and they picked up safety hammers to try to break through the glass to escape.
"Get out of the way!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, Huang Jianjun hurriedly stood up from his seat and asked me to flash aside. He took a deep breath, raised his right arm and smashed the window glass with a punch, and jumped out of the car first.
I told the passengers not to panic, and escaped from the broken window glass of the car in an orderly manner, and only after all the passengers, including the driver, were safely evacuated from the car, I jumped out of the car with confidence.
As soon as my feet hit the ground, the bus moved a few more meters, and the part that protruded out of the cliff grew bigger and bigger, and it was about to fall into the deep valley at any moment.
Huang Jianjun, this old guy is really bold, he actually climbed onto the body of the car that was already hanging outside the road with his bare hands, opened the suitcase, and dragged the backpacks of the two of us out.
Huang Jianjun's dangerous move can really be said to be a chestnut in the fire, if there is no superb skills and extraordinary courage, it is impossible to retreat with all his body.
Some passengers saw that Huang Jianjun was safe and sound, and begged him to take all the remaining luggage out.
Huang Jianjun hadn't eased up yet, and when he heard these unreasonable demands from the passengers, his face turned green with anger, and he muttered in a low voice: "Damn, are these bastards wishing that the old man would die sooner?" β
At this moment, several peasant friends squeezed out of the crowd in a panic, and said to Huang Jianjun in horror: "It's amazing, master, go and take a look, there is a big black coffin on the highway, it's unlucky!" β
Huang Jianjun heard this, his face showed a look of unease, led by the peasants, we walked to the middle of the road, only to see a broken coffin lying on the road, the coffin lid was smashed to pieces, and the ground was full of splashed wood, occasionally mixed with a few bones.
I pulled out my peachwood sword, followed Huang Jianjun cautiously forward, and took a closer look, only to see a blackened skeleton sleeping in the coffin with its head hanging on the outside of the coffin, as if it would fall off at any time.
Huang Jianjun swallowed his saliva, and said with a pale face: "This coffin should not have fallen from the cliff on the left just now." β
I nodded and said very approvingly, "What Master said is very true, at that time, we only heard the sound of the bus brakes, and there was no heavy object falling from the mountain onto the road before that. β
"So that means that the coffin was lying on the road long before the bus even drove here?" Huang Jianjun touched his chin and said with a solemn expression.
I was about to go to the driver to ask what was going on, but the crowd behind me suddenly let out a terrible scream, and Huang Jianjun and I looked back to see that the bus had finally lost its balance, like a broken kite falling into the rolling water deep in the river valley.
